Fusarium wilt is a common vascular wilt fungal disease, exhibiting symptoms similar to Verticillium wilt. This disease has been investigated extensively since the early years of this century. The pathogen that causes Fusarium wilt is Fusarium oxysporum (F. oxysporum). [1] The species is further divided into formae speciales based on host plant.
Fusarium spp. Lasiodiplodia theobromae = Diplodia gossypina Botryosphaeria rhodina [teleomorph] = Physalospora rhodina Phytophthora spp. Rhizoctonia solani. Charcoal rot Macrophomina phaseolina. Escobilla Colletotrichum gossypii Glomerella gossypii [teleomorph] Fusarium wilt Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. vasinfectum. Leaf spot Alternaria macrospora
The symptoms are similar to most wilts with a few specifics to Verticillium. Wilt itself is the most common symptom, with wilting of the stem and leaves occurring due to the blockage of the xylem vascular tissues and therefore reduced water and nutrient flow.
Bacterial wilt of cucurbits is cause by the bacteria Erwinia tracheiphila, it affects cucumber, squash, muskmelon, pumpkin, gourds; [3] certain varieties of cucumber and squash have different degrees of resistance. Once a plant is infected, the bacteria spread through the xylem vessels from the area of infection to the main stem, and the entire ...
F. graminearum can also cause root rot and seedling blight. The total losses in the US of barley and wheat crops between 1991 and 1996 have been estimated at $3 billion. [9] Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense is a fungal plant pathogen that causes Panama disease of banana (Musa spp.), also known as fusarium wilt of
The disease that this pathogen causes is fusarium yellows or fusarium wilt. [2] Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. betae is a type of fungus whose spores survive in the soil. [2] The symptoms of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. betae are yellowing between the large veins, chlorosis, wilting, and necrosis of leaves. [2]
Fusarium redolens is a species of fungus in the genus Fusarium and family Nectriaceae. [1] This species is a soil-borne plant pathogen in temperate prairies. [2] It causes diseases such as root, crown, and spear rot, seedling damping-off, and wilting disease.
Fusarium equiseti is a fungal species and plant pathogen on a varied range of crops. It is considered to be a weak pathogen on cereals and is occasionally found to be associated with 'Fusarium head blight' infected kernels. [3] It is commonly found in tropical and sub-tropical areas. [4]
